Hello,

xfce4-notify 0.2.1 keeps stealing my focus whenever it displays a notification. The focus is returned when the notification disappears. This is especially annoying when I enter my password somewhere.

The "automatically give focus to newly created windows" option in the window manager preferences and "activate focus stealing prevention" in window manager tweaks are ignored (the latter never did anything to begin with).

Thank you for reporting this.

There is a good change that this is bug 6354 which means it's a Xfwm4 bug. There is a proposed workaround. Please tell me if you can confirm this.
